When the school was established, new class rooms were constructed, however some of the school buildings were also transferred and used at the school and some of these buildings are shown here. This post also has photos of the opening of the school and exterior shots. The PROV also has many photos of the construction phase, which I have not included here, but you can see them on their website, www.prov.vic.gov.au, Part 2 has photographs of students in class rooms and other interior shots and some school bus photographs, see here. The photos were taken in the 1950s and early 1960s.
